Da'an's best son-in-law

In the auction venue, a clear voice rang out. Apart from Ye Chen, no one else present had the courage to bet five thousand taels of silver on a black rock wooden box.

"Mr. Ye, can you open the box so that we can keep an eye on it?" In the venue, several voices encouraged Ye Chen to open the wooden box.

"Yeah, give us a good eye-opener, too."

Ye Chen straightened up from his seat and took the wooden box that the maid sent to him under Dong Shan's instruction.

The feeling in his hand was slightly cold, and Ye Chen shook it slightly. There was no sound that he expected from inside, but instead gave him a feeling of emptiness.

Is this thing really empty?

Ye Chen held the wooden box in his hand and felt all the eyes on him in the venue, and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

Although I can't lose any money, if the box is hollow, I will be playing in vain.

"Everyone is invited to attend the next Wei Family Silk and Satin Shop event. Ye Chen will definitely open the wooden box on the same day for everyone to enjoy!"

Handing the box to Wei Qing beside him, Ye Chen cupped his hands to everyone present and said with a smile.

Anyway, this thing is probably a hollow thing. It's better to use the [-] taels as a gimmick to advertise Wei Yanran's silk and satin shop. Sales have declined in the past few days, and the former is a bit haggard visible to the naked eye.

"Qi, you are pretending to be a ghost. I probably bought a hollow thing. I don't dare to open it for everyone to take a look." On the Su family side, when they saw that Ye Chen got the box and didn't forget to publicize it, some people immediately said with disdain.

"Okay, then I will wait for the good news from Mr. Ye!"

Hearing this, there were applauses from the audience, some of which contained sarcasm, but for Ye Chen at this time, this was not important.

He took pictures of the things, but what’s more embarrassing is that he doesn’t have so much money on him now.

"You can only get money on site at the Wanxiang Pavilion auction?" Ye Chen pulled Wei Qing beside him and asked with some confusion.

Some of the collections just now were also acquired by some children of the four major families, but without exception, these people accepted the collections but did not pay any money.

It was after observing this phenomenon that Ye Chen directly raised the price.

"That's not the case, Brother Chen." Wei Tong pointed to the attic of Wanxiang Pavilion and explained to Ye Chen.

"Unlike these people who come to participate in the auction on their own, all the major families have accounts in Wanxiang Pavilion, so most of the money will be deducted from Wanxiang Pavilion's accounts, and the bills will be sent to them at the end of the year. All major families will be fine.”

"Then they are not afraid of not paying for the goods?" Ye Chen asked doubtfully.

"How is that possible, uncle?" Lian'er on the side took over the words of the two and said, "Wanxiang Pavilion is a first-class force in the imperial capital, let alone in Jizhou. Who dares to swallow the goods of Wanxiang Pavilion? I'm afraid that in the future Life in Jizhou will never be easy.”

While several people were talking, the bustling crowd in the auction venue had gradually dispersed, and some of the disciples next to the seats of the four major families also left.

I was originally looking forward to what the final collection that was exaggerated to be so mysterious would be, but when it came into Ye Chen's hands, the former was unwilling to open it on the spot.

Eighty percent of it is hollow. Five thousand taels of silver is a waste for this grandson!

Seeing Ye Chen's calm and contented look on the stage, everyone in the Su family who had a bad impression of Ye Chen because of Su Yunan's failure suddenly began to speculate bitterly about what Ye Chen was holding.

Everyone in the venue, except for the seats of the Wei family, had probably left. When Dong Shan saw this, he cupped his hands towards Ye Chen on the stage, "I don't know that this object in Mr. Ye's hand is today... ..."

If other children of aristocratic families bought some favorite items at the auction venue, Dong Shan only needed to record them in the accounts. It would be unnecessary to ask specifically.

But Ye Chen is embarrassed here. As the son-in-law who moved from the Ye family to the Wei family, the Ye family no longer has his accounts, and the Wei family has not yet recorded him in the books.

Hearing this, everyone in the Su family who was about to leave suddenly stopped and turned around, paying attention to every move that happened here.

The man next to Su Yunan just now had his arms crossed, looking like he was watching the fun, wanting to see how Ye Chen would answer.

Pay cash to auction? That's nonsense. Although Ye Chen's behavior today is a bit evil, it would be a fantasy for anyone to have a son-in-law carry five thousand taels of silver notes with him when he goes out.

Accounting? The meaning of Dong Shan's words is already obvious. Neither family has Ye Chen's name now, so he can't keep accounts now.

"Brother Chen, if you really can't record it in my account, just give me the money when the time comes." After glaring at the people in the Su family who were watching the joke, Wei Qing said to Ye Chen.

"Brother Ye Chen was so energetic when he raised the price. Why is it so ink when it's time to pay the bill?"

A trace of ridicule flashed in Su Yunan's eyes, he flicked the folding fan in his hand and spoke with a faint smile.

Ye Chen was happy to call out the price, but Wanxiang Pavilion didn't have his accounts to hang. The face he had lost just now seemed to have been regained by Ye Chen.

"Master Ye, can't you remember the accounts? Just record them in our master's accounts!"

The man next to Su Yunan also followed up and added, "Our young master can be regarded as a distinguished guest of Wanxiang Pavilion. As long as Mr. Ye can find the money to make up for it within a year, it will be fine."

There were bursts of low laughter from the crowd, and the faces of the others looking at Ye Chen became brighter.

Ignoring the teasing laughter of everyone in the Su family, Ye Chen asked Dong Shan, who was a little embarrassed: "Can the auction pavilion be listed on other people's accounts?"

"Of course you can, as long as you get the consent of the former," Dong Shan nodded affirmatively.

"Okay then", Ye Chen pointed to his face, "You know whose husband I am?"

"Of course, of course, you are Miss Wei's son-in-law. Who in Jizhou City doesn't know that?"

"Put it on my wife's account"

On Wei Yanran's account?

When Ye Chen said this, his face did not turn red, his heart did not beat, and his eyes glanced in Su Yunan's direction intentionally or unintentionally.

"My wife, she likes these weird gadgets the most. Before she came here, she specifically asked me to bring back more of these gadgets and pay them as she pleases." After taking a look at Su Yunan's face, Ye Chen paused, and then Asked: "Will Wei Yanran's account not work in Wanxiang Pavilion?"

"Of course, you can take the things and the accounts will be handled according to your instructions." Dong Shan bowed slightly and said, joking, Wei Yanran's accounts won't work here, and there is no need for the children of the four families to have accounts.

"Hahaha, in the end I ended up with a girl..."

The children of the Su family who were about to speak out suddenly closed their mouths angrily when they saw Su Yunan's expression gradually cooling down.

There is no other reason. All the scholars in Jizhou know that when Su Yunan was in Songyue Academy, the stories he had to tell Wei Yanran...
